How to Make Sand Art Candles

Step 1:

Place a glue dot on the bottom of your self standing wick and place it in the bottom center of your votive.

Step 2:

Next, simply fill your votive with granulated wax. You can use a spoon or a squeeze bottle as I have done here. Create layers using multiple colors. Tilt the candle on its side to create interesting patterns.

Step 3:

I use a piece of beeswax to keep the granulated wax from spilling. Trace the top of your votive onto the beeswax sheet. Cut out a circle of beeswax, slightly larger than the votive.

Step 4:

Cut a small hole in the center of your beeswax disc.

Step 5:

Push the beeswax disc down onto the top of your granulated wax. Use the warmth of your fingers to mold the beeswax into place and seal it.
